Most of the subjects we post about have, at one time or another, been previously covered. For example, we’ve just had British and American sitcom tournaments. Sitcoms have been discussed numerous times before.

 

With regard to the thread you linked to, it was started 12 years ago and hasn’t been posted in for more than half a decade. Plenty of posters have come and gone since then.

 

I’ll do a new, bigger and better tournament. If people want to participate, they will, if not, there are plenty of other threads to post in, call each other cunts, etc.

 

That said, suggestions for other tournaments are welcome.

I quite like Vera. I don’t watch it regularly but Brenda Blethyn is very good in it.

No George Gently? The John Hannah version of Rebus but not the Ken Stott one?

We should add a surreal touch by including Endeavour , thus having the same person twice at different stages of his life played by two different actors.

I considered George Gently. Can’t have them all, though.

 

Thought it best to stick to one portrayal per character. Only watched Hannah as Rebus but I’m happy to have Stott instead.

Good idea but I wanted to include as many different characters as possible.
